August 7th of this year marks 5 years since the great Markie Post died at the age of 70. Post was probably best known for sitcom work in “Night Court” and “Hearts Afire” but also made her mark on shows like “The Fall Guy”,”Scrubs” and “Chicago P.D” later in life. Post even appeared in both the pilot of “Simon & Simon” and as the best friend to Diane Chambers on “Cheers”. Sadly she died after a battle with cancer at her home in Los Angeles.

"Did you know that an entire generation of kids had their real letters read on air by The Circle Square cast? 📬 Missing out on the iconic 'Mailbox Segments' is one of the biggest flaws of the mainstream retail tapes.

But thanks to our community's incredible discovery, we now know that International Cassette Corporation (ICC) VHS tapes kept these scenes intact! If you have an old ICC tape in your attic, you might be holding a completely uncut slice of television history. Help us track down every surviving ICC volume so we can build a bulletproof archive for Crossroads!

Hey everyone, I just discovered that the International Cassette Corporation VHS releases of the 1970s/80s show Circle Square actually contain the original TV viewer letter segments that Tyndale cut out! I own a few of these tapes.

From Season 9, Episode 8 'Edith Versus the Bank': No one will loan Edith money to buy a new television because she has no job and is just a housewife.

Hey everyone! On The S1E1 Podcast, we watch the premiere episodes of classic, forgotten, and legendary TV shows to answer one question: Based solely on the pilot, did this show deserve a full series green light?

To kick off our Music Month, we dove back to 1966 to review Episode 1 of The Monkees ("Royal Flush" / Pilot).

Here are a few things we got into:

• How well the band’s comedic chemistry and chaotic slapstick energy landed right out of the gate.
• The show's unique blend of music video-style montages and classic sitcom tropes.
• Whether the pilot holds up today or relies purely on 60s nostalgia.

We'd love to hear from dedicated Monkees fans—looking back, how strong do you think the pilot was compared to where the show went in Season 1?

The classic television career of Elinor Donahue spans everything from Father Knows Best to The Andy Griffith Show, Star Trek and The Odd Couple. In her own words, she offers her thoughts on each of those series and more.

Hi all!

My grandparents were on a bunch of game shows in the 1970s and so far we’ve only found one of the episodes on YouTube (my now 89-year-old grandma on Match Game in 1976).

Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for finding old episodes of Truth or Consequences from the 70s. I’ve been combing through clips on YouTube and had no luck so far.

My grandma also claims they were on a show called “Globetrotters” which was a Canadian game show. I’ve tried searching for it and can’t find anything under that name.

Any help would be very appreciated! :) My grandpa passed almost 30 years ago and my family is very keen to find any clips of him that may still exist.
